UnderSail: Hanse 455—video

Sailors have long come to expect performance, comfort and solid build quality from Germany’s Hanse, and the Hanse 455 is no exception. Despite its size the boat is remarkably easy to sail shorthanded, thanks to a self-tacking jib and control lines that are led aft to the twin helms. The Hanse 455’s well-engineered keel and large rudder also make the boat very nimble going through stays and allows it to drive through a gust or sloppy seas with sure-footed composure.
